studio
Melodyne studio gives you all the functions that have made Melodyne one of the most valued tools in professional music production. Enthusiastic users, euphoric test reports, and numerous awards all attest to the uniquely powerful, intuitive, and musical editing possibilities it possesses — no matter if you're using it for the correction of errors or the creative refashioning of your audio material.
Perfect Vocals
Human hearing is particularly sensitive when it comes to vocal tracks, which is why producers all over the world are grateful that intonation and timing corrections are practically inaudible. Correct the notes quickly and easily with the help of a macro or drag them with the mouse to the correct pitch or position in time. Fine-tune their length, their volume or the intensity of their vibrato. They'll sound as if they had always been that way.
From Solo to Ensemble
With Melodyne studio, you are no longer limited to seeing and editing just one track — you can work with as many tracks as you like. This let's you create, with extraordinary ease, multi-voice arrangements from a source track with only one voice, even taking advantage of the possibility of outputting each individual voice via a separate channel in the mixer. You can quantize tracks using other tracks for reference and even copy pitches from one audio track to another. The possible degree of flexibility and creative freedom for your arrangements is immense, and multi-tracking adds up to a lot more here than just the sum of multiple tracks.
Any Workflow You Want
Melodyne studio gives you the choice to create entire audio arrangements in the Melodyne studio environment or unite the program seamlessly via ReWire or the Melodyne Bridge plug-in with your preferred audio workstation. Regardless of which procedure you prefer, Melodyne studio offers you a whole array of functions that make working with audio faster and simpler—and the results a whole lot better.
From Macro to Micro
Melodyne studio offers you a particularly musical access to your audio material. For the correction of intonation and timing errors, macros are available that enhance a recording quickly and easily. However, with the intuitive tools provided, you can go further and fine-tune the most subtle tonal characteristics: not just the pitch and volume of notes, but their vibrato and pitch drift, position and length, formant spectrum, the transitions between them, and even the speed at which events unfold within individual notes.
Perfect Timing
With Melodyne studio, it's child's play to get things spot-on. Using a macro, you can progressively iron out timing irregularities or impose the rhythm of one track upon another. As it does these things, Melodyne studio moves the notes intelligently, even adjusting their length. That guarantees results of unprecedented musicality. Needless to say, you can also move notes forwards or backwards in time manually until the timing is exactly as you wish it.
From Melody to Rhythm
Edit very effectively not only vocals and melodic instruments, but also rhythmic material. From a short, stiff drum loop, for example, you can create a vibrant rhythm track in next to no time by cutting, copying, and pasting beats. With studio's parameters you can even effect subtle or even extreme tonal variations. It gives you a freedom when dealing with rhythms and sounds that will suggest totally new ideas to you.
Global Intervention
Not even full mixes dismay Melodyne studio. Stretch or transpose entire songs without compromising their sound quality. Select parts of songs or individual beats, and transpose, move, or copy them in their entirety to some other location. Because studio recognizes and separates the beats in audio material, all such procedures can be accomplished effortlessly and without little clicks or other blemishes being introduced along the way.
Virtual Ensembles
In Melodyne studio you can implement a doubling or create a second voice with a few mouse clicks. Thanks to the formant parameter, the transposed voices sound exactly like the original, unless, of course, you want them to acquire a different character—ideal for creating a natural-sounding choir from a single voice, or a brass ensemble from a trumpet part, or a string quartet from a violin, etc.
Sound Library Reloaded
With Melodyne studio, much will change, including your sound library, which will suddenly be a whole lot bigger. Since you'll be able to alter at will the tempo, timing, and melody of your sampled licks and phrases, you'll always have suitable samples at hand for your productions, and as many variations as you wish.
Sound Design
The unique possibilities of Melodyne studio can be used not only for unobtrusive correction but also for drastic alteration and extraordinary effects. With formant shifting, you can color the sound of individual notes or entire samples subtly or else drastically. You can time-stretch sounds to such an extent that their tonal development is literally audible in slow motion. Even with such extreme applications, the starting transients of the notes remain crisp and the sound soft and round.
Recomposition
With Melodyne, you can effect far-reaching changes in your audio material in order to create something new. You can copy, for example, only the pitches from one track to another, so that a percussion track, say, follows the notes of a vocal part. You can output the detected notes &mndash; including precise data regarding their dynamics and pitch — via MIDI, and use it to control a synthesizer or a sampler. Wwith that comes fascinating new possibilities for doubling, arranging, and sound design.
editor
Melodyne editor is the first Celemony product to offer the revolutionary Direct Note Access technology. This makes possible what had previously been considered impossible — access to individual notes in polyphonic audio material. Correct wrong notes in a piano recording; change the chords in a guitar accompaniment after the recording is over; refashion a sample lick. Melodyne editor lets you do things of which, until now, you could only dream.
Massive Freedom
With Melodyne editor you can edit your audio material in an intuitive and flexible way. Simply move an audio note to a different pitch or a different position. Make notes longer or shorter, louder or softer. Delete notes from chords or add new ones by copying. Transpose or quantize your material, create from it melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic variations. Once you've experienced the power to reshape audio in this way, you won't want to live without it.
The Best of Company
Melodyne software is at home in all the great studios of the world and can be heard on countless productions. Leading producers are of one voice in praising the sound quality, flexibility, swiftness, and reliability that Melodyne brings to their day-to-day work. Melodyne editor continues this great tradition, and with DNA Direct Note Access, permits completely new applications that make Melodyne still more indispensable.
A New Audio Age
Melodyne editor with DNA Direct Note Access represents a quantum leap in audio editing and the logical continuation of the musical approach for which Melodyne is known. Direct Note Access will change the way we work with audio. A new, simpler, and more creative audio age is dawning, and with Melodyne editor, you're in at the start.
Applications
First Take: Final Take
That inspired first take can, with Melodyne editor, be the final one, even if it wasn't error free. Simply reach into the recording and move wrong notes to the correct place or erase them. You can even correct intonation or timing errors automatically by macro if you wish, even if the material is polyphonic.
Perfect Vocals
Melodyne has proved itself a thousand times in the correction and optimization of vocal recordings. Melodyne editor with Direct Note Access offers still greater mastery of this high art: intonation and timing problems, unsteady volume, exaggerated or weak vibrato—all that can be corrected with a few mouse clicks. And the sound quality is Melodyne's best ever.
Perfect Timing
With Melodyne editor, it's child's play to get things spot-on. You can adjust effortlessly and continuously the extent to which a performance deviates from metronomic precision and even give recordings a totally different rhythm. When quantizing, Melodyne not only moves individual notes but also adjusts their length, even when the material is polyphonic. That guarantees results of unprecedented musicality.
Sound Library Reloaded
With Melodyne editor, much will change, including your sound library, which will become virtually infinite in extent. Since you'll be able to alter at will the tempo, timing, melody, and harmonies of your sampled licks and phrases — adding or deleting notes as you please — you'll always have perfect samples to hand for the production you're working on. You'll also get as many variations as you wish.
No Detours
Melodyne editor operates directly within your audio workstation. You hear all edits in the context of the other tracks of your project and can use as many instances as you like and your computer will allow. For the swift editing of a sample between times, you can open Melodyne editor in standalone mode without having to start up your audio workstation first.
Polyphony à la carte
With Melodyne editor, whether a track is monophonic or polyphonic is not a fact, but a condition you have the creative freedom to override. Copy or cut notes, and paste them in new locations. You can implement doubling, create second voices, construct chords where none were there before or thin out harmonies that are unduly dense.
Recycling Perfection
Since with Melodyne editor, the melody, harmony, tempo, and timing of audio material can be reshaped at will, you can always find a new home for recordings in your archive. You could, for example, take a guitar track from an old recording, change the key and tempo, add a light shuffle, and integrate it seamlessly into your current project.
Design Right Down to the Details
Access to the individual notes offers totally new freedom in sound design. You can, for example, alter the volume or formant spectrum of individual notes in order to give chords a different coloration and character. By copying and pasting, you can even swap sounds — replacing, for example, the piano sounds of a chord with marimba sounds, even if they were taken from a totally different chord.
